*Creeping and upgrading attack/defense (at the War Mill/Graveyard/Huntresses Hall/Blacksmith) can be the factor that will turn the game in your favor, or the opponents. I suggest you do these (especially creep) as early as possible. [';Creeping'; is when you take your hero out to attack the creeps around the map in order to gain experience and grow levels]. Just throwing that out there =)
Night Elves = Quickly get units (archers) and rush them in the beginning. Get the Demon Hunter as a hero, because he's melee and get the inflammation skill. Do this quickly enough and it works most of the time. (Best against undead).
Orcs = Upgrade all buildings necessary to get Wyverns (unless playing against undead[never go with air units against undead]). I suggest you build a couple of towers if you plan on skipping the construction of a barracks (allowing you to get to Wyvs faster). If you haven't encountered the enemy after a while, start thinking about adding some tauren or witch doctors/shaman to your army. Like with the night elves, I suggest you use a melee hero when you have ranged units.
Undead = I would have to say that the best combination of forces for the undead would have to be Crypt Fiends with some type of air unit (preferably Frost Wyrms). The Crypt Fiends bring down any aerial units the enemy may have, and without air units to tear them to shreds, the Wyrms are pretty much free to own some serious noobs =) Again, I suggest a melee hero (probably the Death Knight). This strategy is worst against Night Elves. When fighting night elves, I suggest you get Crypt Fiends teamed up with Abominations.
Humans = I would say that humans have the most flexibility on when they can attack. If you're rushing them, I plan on getting some gunners right off the bat. If you want to tech and upgrade, I would suggest you use Knights and/or (depending on time) Gryphon Riders. If you move quickly, and creep right away, you can generally be prepared for anything. The best method? I'd say tech straight to gunners, grab a melee hero (Paladin's your best bet), creep as you track down their location, and strike (while healing your units). People usually aren't prepared for a unit as strong as gunners that early on.
Of course strategy varies, depending on several things such as maps, skill levels, and what race you're against, but I've found that these strategies are generally good for all situations, whether you're a beginner or a pro. Good luck =)
